4. Precautions
Note
- The board accepts a power supply of 9~19V 5A MAX. Please use the official original power adapter to power the board to avoid damaging the carrier board and the core module.
- Please confirm the working condition of the core module's heatsink to prevent performance degradation caused by module overheating. Make sure the heatsink is securely mounted and free of obstructions; clean off dust regularly if necessary.
- Before powering on, make sure a storage medium such as a USB drive / SSD / eMMC / memory card is connected to the board.
